This was my wife’s surprise Valentine’s Day gift this year. While I made the coffee ganache our two boys enthusiastically rolled shaped and coated the truffles with cocoa powder.

He worked briefly in a ski resort and a city hotel in Basel Switzerland over the next few years but in 1986 he seized the opportunity to work in New York.
